Can we really hope to beat Mr. Tumble himself? Winners will be announced on the 20th of June. Fingers crossed.

This week we chatted to John Reppion and Leah Moore one of our favourite comic writing teams; creators of ripping yarns, whose free-to-air webcomic The Thrill Electric is a great read. You can see what we talked about after the jump!

Full interview here: thoughtbubblefestival.wordpress.com

*I feel obligated to point out that the interview was conducted a couple of months back now, and that I have read other, more recent, comics since (honestly).

One that deserves special mention is Eric Orchard’s Marrowbones which you should buy now.

The latest Meg features a Black Museum story written by Moore & Reppion, with art by D’Israeli, entitled Scouting for Bots.

We really enjoyed writing it and we hope you enjoy reading it.

You can order the Meg online via the 2000 AD website or find it in all good newsagents and comic shops.

Leah Moore and John Reppion are no strangers to “2000 AD.” Both writers grew up reading the legendary British anthology and both are contributing to its sister publication “Judge Dredd Megazine” next month with “Tales from the Black Museum: Scouting for Bots.” Oh, and Leah’s father happens to be one of “2000 AD’s” greatest writers of all time, Alan Moore. Reppion and the younger Moore have been writing comics together for nearly a decade with projects at “Judge Dredd Megazine,” Dynamite Entertainment and a new Sherlock Holmes book all in the works. The pair has also written comic book adaptations of “Dr. Who,” “Alice in Wonderland,” and “Dracula” as well as the WildStorm series “Albion.”

Joining them on “Scouting for Bots” is artist Matt Brooker, better known to the comics community as D’Israeli. “Scouting Bots” is a 9-page black and white story debuting in “Judge Dredd Megazine” #322, which comes out this month in the UK and next month in North America.

Moore and Reppion spoke exclusively with CBR News about “Scouting for Bots,” “2000 AD,” how becoming parents has affected their writing, and what they think about “Before Watchmen.”

March 20th 2012 – the Vernal Equinox – the “equal night” of Spring – on this date day and night, darkness and light, come into perfect balance. The first quarter of the year is at an end and a new season begins.

For us (Moore & Reppion, that is) it marks the beginning of a “final push” period of flat out work before we take a nine month(ish) break from comics to concentrate on our imminently expanding family.

Hopefully, you won’t even notice we’re gone since we’ll have an 8 issue series, a whole short story anthology, and some other interesting bits and bobs (possibly even our second Holmes series) coming out during that time.

This time next year, as the moonlight and sunlight hours balance once again, new projects yet unimagined will be filling our heads and clamoring to be told.  Either that or we’ll be up to our necks in dirty nappies sleeping for short intervals whenever possible. Maybe both.

Please download, enjoy, rate, reblog, retweet, comment, email, spread the word. Go, go, GO!

This free ten-part (150 page) enhanced comic is set in Victorian Manchester and demonstrates the extraordinary parallels between the Internet Age and the Telegraph Age.
